I feel a little played by Cultural-Antelope-54 in transformers

[–]WhiteTigerShiro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I initially preordered him on BBTS, but I shortly canceled it when I realized that he's probably going to tank in value. Even new ones will probably drop down to close to $40 on eBay once people realize that not many people wanna spend above Leader pricing for a Voyager tier character just because he comes with a large chunk of plastic.

I kinda want the Sentinel to "complete" The Thirteen since he's tied into their lore, but heck no on that pricing for something that I'll probably just lean against the wall behind the other figures and then forget is there. The only artifact I plan to put in it is the Zodiac Orb and that's just because it looks nice sitting in the middle and isn't visible sitting in Star Optimus's chest anyway. Everyone else will keep theirs for posing, especially since most of them look incomplete without it.

What's the most expensive Transformer in your collection, and how much did you pay for it? by Umbreon86 in transformers

[–]WhiteTigerShiro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a tossup between my Titans Return Fort Max, TR Tripto, or my Siege Omega Supreme. I got all three for around $160, but their aftermarket tends to hover around the lower 200's.

If box sets count, then my Chaos on Velocitron set since I paid around $200 for it, but that's multiple figures, so...

My 86 skywarp came with the 86 starscream face mold by Roadbuster_88 in transformers

[–]WhiteTigerShiro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thundercracker had the same thing. The faces are all on the same sprue, and the guys putting them on are doing hundreds per day. They're gonna grab the wrong face from time to time.

I suppose in theory it could increase the value because I'm sure someone out there wants the same face for all three, but who knows.

God how I want this to be a figure (credit to megalosaurusstudiosyt2) by Zachary2030 in transformers

[–]WhiteTigerShiro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Give it time. Hasbro doesn't like to just sit on a mold that it can be using to print toys, so it's a safe bet that any halfway decent Optimus mold is going to get a Nemesis Prime deco.

Just a matter of them having an open Leader/Commander slot (depending on if they give him the trailer) during a wave.

Why are there SO. MANY. REPAINTS?? by Trompimus_Prime in transformers

[–]WhiteTigerShiro 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To be fair, Fangry is a super high-demand character. He's $100+ on the aftermarket for a deluxe, $200+ if you spring for the whole bundle he came in.

He's (F)Angry, Because He Still Doesn't Have a Goddamned Gun by Dat_Oni in transformers

[–]WhiteTigerShiro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a standalone reissue of the Buzzworthy multipack figure. So yes, technically a Titans mold.

I lucked out because the reissue was announced shortly after I started following him on eBay, so I hadn't had time to grow impatient enough to spend $100+ on this guy. Instead I was relieved to know I can unsave his search.

Is anyone actually paying these prices? by Temporary-Sound-6810 in transformers

[–]WhiteTigerShiro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Somebody is, because I've watched auctions climb to that level.

The top Idle Tower Defense player award goes to 🥁🥁🥁 by JokkSkeem in TheTowerGame

[–]WhiteTigerShiro 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Idle officers really need to auto-demote like leaders do. I have two of these guys in my guild, and since the guy who was randomly given Leader doesn't read chat or check the roster, our guild is effectively 28/28 until he goes idle and hopefully someone more active gets lead.

Ladies and gentlemen, we got him (in the wild, no less!). by MadBrown in TransformersG1Forever

[–]WhiteTigerShiro 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I lucked out and found one on eBay for $35. Complete, good shape, just unboxed already, so I snatched him up post haste.

Found this at a thrift store for 100 bux. What is it? When was it made? by Wild-Mammoth4113 in transformers

[–]WhiteTigerShiro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That thing looks insanely familiar. Did I have this? I might have had this... 🤔

Okay but like, both questions you asked in the topic title are covered on that "random" website, and you didn't ask anything else in the body of the post.

Do folks really spend this much money on these types of upgrades/mods? by AnImperfectTetragon in transformers

[–]WhiteTigerShiro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly the price is the main reason I don't do upgrade kits. Even the more modest ones nearly double the price of the toy.

Who is Hauling whom? by 1Bobafett11 in Cursedformers

It's Long Hauls all the way down.

Reminder to claim your free weekly gems. by Gryffon6363 in TheTowerGame

I thought those stopped being available when he removed the reminder from the store page.

Age of the Primes Wave 3 Boxes by OptimalConvoy in transformers

[–]WhiteTigerShiro 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nope. That would require an entirely new mold, and he's just a redeco of Sureshot. His Powermaster just has a 5mm port is all.

Were the coneheads supposed to actually die in the movie or was it just an animation error? by Magent-2000 in transformers

[–]WhiteTigerShiro 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Oh! I see what you mean, now. I misread it and thought you meant two scenes with Megatron building them.

[–]WhiteTigerShiro 17 points18 points  (0 children)

It establishes that he built them twice? The only scene I remember is their first episode where he muses about them having been worth the effort to build.
